The Nice Guy

by Logan Gray

Brynlee Carmichael left Chicago with one to finally live life on her own terms. She’s tired of being just a pretty face, and she’s done with the wealthy suitors her mother pushed her toward. All she wants is her late grandparents’ house in Copperwood—and the chance to find peace in the small town her parents once ran from.

Rhett Dillon has always been the Nice Guy—the stop along the way rather than the destination when it comes to women. Until Brynlee spins out on a gravel road and straight into his world. She’s stunning, vibrant, and completely out of his league…yet somehow, she makes him believe he could be enough.

But when Brynlee’s old life—and her old fiancé—come calling, Rhett faces the heartbreak he always feared was inevitable. Letting her go may be his biggest mistake. Because now, the one label he thought he hated—Nice Guy—is the very thing he’d give anything to have back…along with Brynlee.

About the author

Logan Gray is a writer and authorpreneur who likes to create books like artists like to create art. Description is important, but she wants to allow the reader to make the story their own. While she wants to give the reader what he or she needs to see the picture she's trying to depict, she doesn't want to fill the pages with unnecessary description to restrict how the reader views the characters or places.

While this may not appeal to all readers, she hopes it appeals to others who like you add their own touch to the story. Maybe they would rather the walls be white instead of gray. Maybe they'd like to envision the person is tall instead of average height. While the description as she sees it is there, it's not written so strongly the own interpretation cannot be made and applied. It gives the reader some creative freedom in a hobby that isn't always as flexible.
